The alula is a small structure that is found on birds. It is located at the joint between the hand wing and the arm wings of birds and it is the freely moving, first digit of a bird's wing. It is normally used by birds in slow flight. In humans, the structure that is comparable to the alula is the thumb.

Describe the function of each of the important structures in a virus. (
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The main function of the virion is to deliver its DNA or RNA genome into the host cell so that the genome can be expressed (transcribed and translated) by the host cell. The viral genome, often with associated basic proteins, is packaged inside a symmetric protein capsid.

Explanation:

what is  a virus A virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of an organism. Viruses infect all life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Since Dmitri Ivanovsky's 1892 article describing a non-bacterial pathogen infecting tobacco plants and the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, more than 9,000 virus species have been described in detail of the millions of types of viruses in the environment. Viruses are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth and are the most numerous type of biological entity. The study of viruses is known as virology, a subspeciality of microbiology.

Complementary strand of DNA?<br> DNA Strand 1: AATCGGTAC
lesantik [10]

Answer:

TTAGCCATG

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a double helix molecule made up of two complementary polynucleotide strands oriented antiparallel to each other. Each nucleotide in both DNA strands is composed of a five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. In DNA, there are four types of nitrogenous bases: Thymine, Guanine, Adenine and Cytosine (in RNA, Uracil replace Thymine). According to the base-pairing rules, Adenine always pairs with Thymine through two hydrogen bonds, whereas Guanine always pairs with Cytosine through three hydrogen bonds.
